MIPS: kernel: Clear FPU states when setting up kernel threads

2023-12-13T17:45:34+00:00

commit a58a173444a68412bb08849bd81c679395f20ca0 upstream.

io_uring sets up the io worker kernel thread via a syscall out of an
user space prrocess. This process might have used FPU and since
copy_thread() didn't clear FPU states for kernel threads a BUG()
is triggered for using FPU inside kernel. Move code around
to always clear FPU state for user and kernel threads.

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of tty and serial driver changes for 6.6-rc1.

  Lots of cleanups in here this cycle, and some driver updates. Short
  summary is:

   - Jiri's continued work to make the tty code and apis be a bit more
     sane with regards to modern kernel coding style and types

   - cpm_uart driver updates

   - n_gsm updates and fixes

   - meson driver updates

   - sc16is7xx driver updates

   - 8250 driver updates for different hardware types

   - qcom-geni driver fixes

   - tegra serial driver change

   - stm32 driver updates

   - synclink_gt driver cleanups

   - tty structure size reduction

  All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported
  issues. The last bit of cleanups from Jiri and the tty structure size
  reduction came in last week, a bit late but as they were just style
  changes and size reductions, I figured they should get into this merge
  cycle so that others can work on top of them with no merge conflicts"

nmi_backtrace: allow excluding an arbitrary CPU

2023-08-18T17:19:00+00:00

The APIs that allow backtracing across CPUs have always had a way to
exclude the current CPU.  This convenience means callers didn't need to
find a place to allocate a CPU mask just to handle the common case.

Let's extend the API to take a CPU ID to exclude instead of just a
boolean.  This isn't any more complex for the API to handle and allows the
hardlockup detector to exclude a different CPU (the one it already did a
trace for) without needing to find space for a CPU mask.

Arguably, this new API also encourages safer behavior.  Specifically if
the caller wants to avoid tracing the current CPU (maybe because they
already traced the current CPU) this makes it more obvious to the caller
that they need to make sure that the current CPU ID can't change.

arch: Register fchmodat2, usually as syscall 452

2023-07-27T10:25:35+00:00

This registers the new fchmodat2 syscall in most places as nuber 452,
with alpha being the exception where it's 562.  I found all these sites
by grepping for fspick, which I assume has found me everything.

tty: sysrq: switch sysrq handlers from int to u8

2023-07-25T17:21:03+00:00

The passed parameter to sysrq handlers is a key (a character). So change
the type from 'int' to 'u8'. Let it specifically be 'u8' for two
reasons:
* unsigned: unsigned values come from the upper layers (devices) and the
  tty layer assumes unsigned on most places, and
* 8-bit: as that what's supposed to be one day in all the layers built
  on the top of tty. (Currently, we use mostly 'unsigned char' and
  somewhere still only 'char'. (But that also translates to the former
  thanks to -funsigned-char.))
